I think we shouldn't make any distinction between tests, but should run all tests with `rake test`, that's because all manual intervention causes problems like just happened. I don't think that these tests interfere too much while running, especially since they're not ran 24/7 on your desktop, but right before needed. My suggestion would be to include all tests into `rake test` or delete the tests which are not run. The less distinctions, the better. > I agree that this warrants a 1.7.1 release ASAP. Done. Jarmo
